Poster for Beauty and the Beast

Beauty and the Beast

Emma is, of course, beautiful but she obviously can’t sing these kind of songs, and she didn’t seem to get on with most of the CGI-y scenes. Awful casting.

Speaking of CGI, the beast looks like a cheap X-Files monster-of-the-week.

Then I don’t understand why they stuck so close to the original yet messed around with it quite as much.
